DesignGood picks 9 Docs that will Open Your Eyes

January 9, 2016

Happy (solar) New Year, Everyone!

We were delighted to learn that DesignGood named A LOT LIKE YOU one of 9 Docs that will Open Your Eyes. As their post reads, “[a] compelling documentary can make you see the world in a new way and inspire social change. For today’s Design9, we’re highlighting some current favorites that we think everyone should see…” And we just love their description of our film…

Filmmaker Eliaichi Kimaro points out that the more intimate and vulnerable the storytelling, the more universal the story can be. In this feature-length documentary, Kimaro journeys back to her father’s African village to fill in the gaps from her childhood in the U.S. and her parents’ life there and in Tanzania. Themes of mixed marriage, gender violence and cultural relativism will make you question your own identity and how your own story will play on for future generations.

We’re so honored to be in such good company. Check out their complete Design9 doc list here:
